1 PROCUREMENT SPECIFICATION AUTOMATIC RETRACTABLE BOLLARD SYSTEM PNEUMATIC MODEL DSC305-PE CHROME SERIES BACKGROUND INFORMATION The Model DSC305-PE Bollard System ( DSC305 ) is designed to provide positive control of automobiles and trucks into and out of restricted areas. Precision steel bollards raised and lowered by a quiet pneumatic source are used as a primary bulwark against unauthorized or wayward vehicle and to stop aggravated or accidental vehicle attacks. Originally designed to protect against terrorist attack the DS305 is configured to stop and destroy heavy trucks and high speed passenger cars. The DSC305 can be a standalone traffic controller for a single lane traffic-way, or it can be arrayed to control multiple lanes of bi-directional traffic. DS305 under remote lock down are used to protect parked vehicles or prevent movement of passenger cars, trucks, wheeled industrial rigs or trailers. Warehouse doors backed up with a DSC305 makes large vehicle traffic nearly impossible. Individual reserved VIP parking spaces can be control either remotely or by the authorized vehicle driver. When used in conjunction with a decorative pedestrian gate or a guard operated drop arm gate, the DSC305 offer protections against gate runners by remaining in the guard position utile the guard approves the visitor. A DSC305. System with bollards arrayed as a Sally Port can practically eliminate tail-gating vehicles. Copyright 2012 Delta Scientific Corporation Page 1 of 9

Just as in the case of any Barricade system, perimeter security device or security gate that blocks a roadway or drive, care must be taken to ensure that approaching vehicles as well as pedestrians are fully aware of the Bollards and their operation. Proper illumination, clearly worded warning signs, auxiliary devices such as semaphore gates, stop-go signal lights, audible warning devices, speed bumps, flashing lights, beacons, etc. should be considered. Delta has information available on many such auxiliary safety equipment not specifically listed herein. It is strongly recommended that an architect and or a traffic and or safety engineer be consulted prior to installation of a Bollard system. Delta will offer all possible assistance in designing the operating equipment, controls and the overall system but we are not qualified nor do we purport to offer either traffic or safety engineering information.
